Keyless Gate Lock Installation
Mechanical Gate Locks with Keypads
Mechanical locks allow one code to control gate access. They can be single-sided or two-sided (codes required to enter and exit).
They are ideal for:
- The side gates found on most Phoenix homes (wood slat gates with steel framing.)
- Where a single code and tracking are not an issue.
- Cost-conscience buyers. More affordable and lifetime warranties.
These locks are the most affordable keyless gate locks you can install.
Electronic Gate Locks with Keypads and/or Fob Support
Electronic gate locks allow access via multiple pin codes or FOBs that can be assigned to every member of the community. This a commercial lock (electronic locks for residential gates are not readily recommended).
Keyless gate locks for Phoenix communities allow you to track who accessed the gate, at any time, and remove or add active members if/when it becomes necessary.
There are a lot of options for FOB / keypad gate access that need to be discussed and understood before having a gate lock installed.
- How many users will be using the gate?
- Is the community going to control access and run lock audits? Or do you prefer ACME Locksmith to manage the lock?
- Pin code access is the most affordable of the gate keyless entry locks, but do you prefer cards / FOBs to be provided to tenants?
- Do you want to use lock scheduling to prevent access during certain parts of the day?
The gate lock shown is a common wireless, stand alone (non wired) product that we’ve installed on many Phoenix gates. This prevents the needs to run wires for power.
Keyed Locks for Gates
If a keyless lock isn’t for you, you can install a keyed gate lock on both residential and commercial properties.
But for community gates, you won’t want members going out and making key copies. Key control enables you to prevent unauthorized key copies of your community spaces or gates by using keys that CAN’T be duplicated without your authorization.
ACME Locksmith can setup a restricted key system for you. Keys that are just stamped as Do Not Duplicate keys DO NOT provide copy protection.
Installation of Gate Closers
Gate closers are required by Arizona pool code and must be present on any gate that leads to the access of a pool. This is so the gate automatically closes.
Residential gate closers are most often just springs mounted to the gate.
Commercial gate closers are normally more complex and can be pneumatic or fluid-based. These gate closers also prevent the slamming of the gate to protect whatever type of gate lock is installed.
ACME Locksmith can install and service Phoenix gate closers on both residential and commercial gates.
